Unique, hand-made works of art that will warm and enliven your home.
Hi there! My name is Saegan. I am a mother to a very busy toddler, a wife to an amazing painter, an adjunct instructor, and on “my days off” I am a maker.
I was born and raised in Visalia, California. I began my undergraduate studies at College of the Sequoias in California where I discovered an instant fascination and love for printmaking. In 2010, I moved to Columbus, Ohio to attend The Ohio State University. While at there, I intensified my printmaking practice. I then received my BFA with distinction from OSU in 2012.
In 2013, I then moved to Athens, Georgia to pursue my MFA at The Lamar Dodd School of Art at The University of Georgia. There, I continued to perfect my printmaking knowledge while introducing new digital and collaged elements into my studio.
Since getting my MFA, I have returned to the Central Valley with my family. Out of a need to be able to work from home, my process for making has changed. I have translated my process of collecting and assembling materials and objects into works that are made using sewing and quilting techniques. The wall-hangings echo qualities found in my collage work while also evoking sensibilities found in contemporary paintings, quilts, and macrame wall-hangings. In my new work, I would like to upend the perceived hierarchy between the gallery and domestic living space by advocating for high-quality artworks that are warm and live well in the home.
